Speed
Reduce unused JavaScript
1.8 s · 780 KiBAbout 780 KiB of JavaScript is downloaded but never used on this page. Google estimates it would make the page about 1.8 s faster on a phone.
Google Tag Manager adds 2.0 s
2.0 sGoogle Tag Manager costs a phone 2.0 s of main-thread work and 897 KiB of downloads while your page loads. That alone is enough to make taps feel slow. Loading it after the page is usable, or only on the pages that need it, takes that off the critical path.
Optanon adds 1.4 s
1.4 sOptanon costs a phone 1.4 s of main-thread work and 183 KiB of downloads while your page loads. That alone is enough to make taps feel slow. Loading it after the page is usable, or only on the pages that need it, takes that off the critical path.
Main-thread work: 11.0 s
A phone's processor spends 11.0 s on main-thread work while loading, 7.3 s of it running JavaScript. Above 2 s, taps and scrolls feel sluggish.
Mobile performance score: 28
28/100Your mobile performance score is 28 (desktop: 63). Under 50 is Google's “poor” band: many phone visitors leave before the page is usable.
8 third-party services on the page
8 third-party services load with your homepage (Google Tag Manager, Optanon and Facebook and others), adding 1.4 MB and 3.9 s of main-thread time.
20 long tasks on the main thread
20 long tasks block the main thread while loading, the longest for 832 ms. During a long task the page ignores taps.
Render-blocking requests
650 ms5 files block the first paint until they finish downloading. Deferring or inlining them could save about 650 ms.
Use efficient cache lifetimes
534 KiB37 files are served with short cache lifetimes, so returning visitors download them again (534 KiB).
1,555 HTML elements
The page has 1,555 HTML elements. Above 1,500, rendering and every interaction get slower on phones.
Legacy JavaScript
150 ms · 69 KiBPolyfills for old browsers add 69 KiB JavaScript that modern phones do not need. Google estimates it would make the page about 150 ms faster on a phone.
Improve image delivery
135 KiB3 images could be 135 KiB smaller with modern formats (WebP or AVIF) and sizes that fit a phone screen.
Reduce unused CSS
34 KiBAbout 34 KiB of CSS is downloaded but never applied on this page.
Phones get a much slower page than desktops
Desktop scores 63 but mobile only 28. A gap that wide usually means heavy scripts and images that hit phones hardest.
Chained critical requests
Critical files load one after another instead of in parallel (3 chains). Preconnecting to key origins and preloading the hero image shortens the chain.
Forced reflow
Scripts make the browser recalculate the layout repeatedly while the page loads, which wastes processor time on phones.

Images and page weight
Page weight: 3.5 MB in 213 requests
3.5 MBYour homepage downloads 3.5 MB in 213 requests on a phone: scripts 1.9 MB (40), other files 884 KiB (129) and fonts 316 KiB (6). Under 2 MB keeps phones on slow connections fast.
An image on the first screen is lazy-loaded
home-atf_full-mockup-m-us.jpg is on the first screen but marked loading="lazy", so the browser waits before fetching it and the page looks finished later. Load it eagerly (and give it fetchpriority="high" if it is the main image).
About 1.0 g of CO₂ per visit
0.99 gBy the Sustainable Web Design model, a visit to your homepage emits about 0.99 g of CO₂e: 119.1 kg a year at 10,000 visits a month. It scales with page weight, so every byte cut lowers it.
2 checks passed
Images use modern formats
Every sizeable image is WebP, AVIF or SVG.
Images are sized for phones
No image is downloaded at more than three times the size it is drawn on a phone.
Accessibility
3 buttons without a name
3 buttons have no accessible name, so screen readers announce just “button”.
1 text element with low contrast
1 text element doesn't have enough contrast against the background to read easily, especially outdoors on a phone.
All page content should be contained by landmarks (76 elements)
All page content should be contained by landmarks: 76 elements on the page fail this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
Heading levels should only increase by one (1 element)
Heading levels should only increase by one: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination (1 element)
Landmarks should have a unique role or role/label/title (i.e. accessible name) combination: 1 element on the page fails this check, rated moderate by axe-core.
5 links without text
5 visible links have no text or label, so screen readers cannot say where they go.
1 form field without a label
1 form field has no label, so screen readers announce an empty box and autofill guesses.
2 checks passed
Every image has alt text
All 41 images in the HTML carry an alt attribute.
42 automated accessibility rules passed
axe-core 4.13.0, the open-source engine behind most accessibility testing tools, ran 48 WCAG 2.2 A/AA and best-practice rules on the phone render: 42 passed and 6 failed. 2 mores need a person to judge. Automated rules catch about a third of accessibility problems; the rest need manual testing.
